Some time back, A twitter user named Esther Kezia Thrope posted a picture on Twitter of one of her friends’ wedding. Even though everything else was normal, the bride’s wedding dress had something unusual. It was because she had pockets in her dress.
Accordingly the bride could carry her lippy, phone or anything that she needed with her. This trend went viral and a lot of brides started having pockets in their wedding dresses.
As we all know pockets are very useful things and it makes us wonder why has it taken so much for people to come up with this trend. Traditionally brides have used a bag to carry their essentials. But why not make use of the space in their billowing skirt to use it as a pocket?
#weeddingdresswithpockets went so viral that many women started to share their pocket stories.
This is a lesson for all the wedding designers out there.
“Wedding dresses are often not designed with practicality in mind,” said Esther. “But a wedding is the one day a bride is unlikely to have a handbag handy, so pockets are more essential than ever for tissues, lipstick, and of course, snacks (no one wants a hangry bride!)”
Moreover the ability to hangout casually and have hands on your wedding day is incredibly cool.
A lot of women have been demanding to have pockets in their clothes for some time. Even the jeans among the few options available can fail sometimes.
“Pockets on women’s clothing has been a growing issue for a number of years, especially as we become more attached to our phones,” Esther continued. “It’s very rare to see any women’s clothes with adequate pocket space for an Oyster card, let alone a phone!”
“I’ve heard rumors that it’s a conspiracy between fashion houses and handbag designers – if we aren’t given pockets, we have to use handbags!”
“Having recently found a few niche retailers who do work dresses with pockets, I’m now a firm convert to proper pockets. They’re a life-saver, especially during hayfever season when it’s essential to have a pack of tissues handy at all times.”
Considering a lot of ways, wedding dresses are an ultimate expression of victory for pockets in women’s fashion.
What do you think about this pocket trend of brides? Do you think that women’s clothing needs more pockets? If so, why do a lot of women mock many guys who dress in cargo shorts that are pocket rich? Is it because they are jealous?
